Relieve Ice Expansion in Your Above-Ground Pool During Winter Months

These durable, heavy-duty air pillows are made of thick 16-gauge vinyl and sit below your winter cover on the water’s surface. Their presence prevents the freezing water from forming a single sheet as it expands across your above-ground pool, preventing stress to the pool’s walls.

If the cover is tightly secured, the air pillows can also hold the winter cover in a tent-like shape that keeps rain, leaves and snow at the pool’s outer edges where it can be easily removed. To use, simply inflate the air pillows using a shop vac or air pump and place them on the pool’s surface. Most pools will need several pillows for maximum protection; the pillows are available in several shapes and sizes to accommodate all pool sizes.

Pillows can be deflated and rolled up or folded for compact storage during summer months

Easily inflate with a wet/dry vac or electric air blower

Can be patched with standard vinyl patch repair kits

Protects vinyl liner from tearing on sharp and heavy ice sheets

Available in several sizes and shapes or as a combo pack for oval pools

Easy and simple to useHave purchased these pillows in the past and just bought three more. Each year I add more pillows to help keep the leaves from accumulating on the cover. They are easy to clean and store in the spring.

Deflated in closed pool 4 days after inflationInflated the pillow and anchored it midway in my 24 foot round pool. The pillow only held air for about 4 days and then lost so much air that the cover no longer touches it. I have zero interest in removing the cover to put a new pillow in. This was a bad $25 investment.

garbage !I buy these things every year swearing to do something better next year but time gets away from me and I'm back to buying these stupid things. BE FORWARNED these things , no matter what size you try and I've tried many sizes they all are good for one season at best most won't make it through their first season of use . They end up at the base of your pool but if they do make it till spring they will be unusable again they become very brittle.

Great product!I just purchased the air pillow.
We have placed it in the pool under the winter cover, and feel that it will definitely help to keep the cover from sagging from the rain and snow that is sure to come.

Air PillowsOne Worked,The Second One Had A Hole In It Right Out Of The Bag.Sent Pictures To Customer Service Have Not Heard Back From Them

When your pool surface freezes solid during the winter, the expansion of the ice sheet can put enormous pressure on the walls. Air Pillows break up the ice sheet, so that it doesn't freeze solid all the way across the pool, reducing this outward pressure.

Air pillows also protect the vinyl liner, should your pool develop a leak in the vinyl liner during winter. Solid ice sheets that form above a falling water level can be held stationary by the outward ice pressure, until it melts slightly and drops quickly, which can damage vinyl on the wall, sliced by a sharp and heavy ice sheet.

How many Air Pillows do I need for my pool?

You don't need to completely cover the surface of your aboveground pools in air pillows / ice equalizer pillows, but you probably need more than one, unless you are winterizing a very small pool.

Which size Air Pillows should I use for my pool?

You can use most any size pool air pillow, unless your pool is very small. If you use the smaller air pillows, like the 4'x4' or the 4'x8', you will need more than if you use the larger 4'x15' air pillows.

How do I inflate the pool cover Air Pillow?

Air pillows have large valves, identical to the type used on inground pool water tubes. Inflating by mouth would be exhausting; much easier to use an electrical air blower, or wet/dry vac to inflate your air pillows.

Can I use enough Air Pillows to allow rain water to run-off the edge of my pool cover?

You can, if you use enough air pillows and pull the cover tight enough around the edge of the pool. Using cover clips or cable weights may be needed to keep the cover pulled taut over the air pillows. If you have enough air pillows in the pool, and you keep the cover pulled taut, you could enjoy a winter without having to manually pump off rain water and snow melt. Even falling leaves will simply blow off your pool cover!

How long do pool Air Pillows last?

Air pillows can last for many years. They are made of 16ga vinyl, and being under the protection of your pool cover, they rarely develop holes or splits. Storing your air pillows in a cool, dry indoor location during the swimming season will help prolong their lifespan.

Can I repair pool Air Pillows?

If your air pillow develops a hole, it can be patched with any vinyl patch kit; the type used to repair vinyl liners or inflatable pool toys.
